Puttanesca Pasta




1 can of anchovies minced
6 cloves of slivered garlic
2 tbs of chopped capers
one handful each of black and green olives chopped
1 cup of white wine
1 can of Pastene crushed tomatoes
one pinch of red pepper flake
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 lb of your favorite pasta (cooked), I like Linguini with this

In a large saute pan add about 1/4 of olive oil, add garlic and red pepper flake. Brown the garlic and add anchovies. Cook the anchovies for about 5 minutes, you want them to melt with the garlic. To this add your capers and olives. Cook for another minute and then add  your wine. Let the wine cook for about two minutes and then add your tomatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste and let this simmer for about 25 minutes. Add your pasta to the pan and cook another two minutes. Add fresh Parmesan and romano cheese. Done!

*Use this sauce on top of steak or chicken with no pasta for a low carb meal!
